I looked at you, your lips were movingBut I did not hear what you saidYou wanted me, you wanted my nameI was carrying two feet of lead

See the rising sun on this make-believe townWhite shoe shine and leather, both of us so brown

I was in the water, you were dryYou yelled my name now I know whyI'm still learning how to crawlI'm still learning how to crawl

If that big drum, drum is rumblingKeep me in line, keep me from stumblingWhen I first went down, everything was rightSkinny white leg, laying on my bedOver there running, afraid to be found out

Tasting everything with a scream and shoutAll I wanted I rejectedDrinking from a cup of [?]I'm learning how to crawlI'm still learning how to crawl

He ain't comin' in, 'til you lay the tableHe ain't comin' in, not comin' to watch me fallThe killer moves in, moves right into your faceWhen everything seems to be in its right placeCan't wait for love, love to be kingCan't wait for the love, to come with its sting

You blew away in your blue dressI lost the one that I loved bestI'm still learning how to crawlI'm just learning how to crawl
